11065202310 Kenmore Dryer - Instructions

pulled of back and exposed heat element. Made up jumper for themostat and cutout from little sliver of beer can to bypass thermal switches.unit worked so ordered kit to replace non functioning thermostat. Quick delivery and quick instal. I had left back panel off after test . All is well

replaced heat elemant,and all thermastats in dryer....works great

used a multi-meter to determine defective cutout switches and other devices.

found cutout switch was open , ordered on-line and received the part in rapid order.
Installed, and all is well!

I wrote a thank you to their customer service the next day.

after replacing 3 different parts, the dryer would finally run at a total cost of approx. $80.00. This is still cheaper than a repairman coming to the house, as the service call is $79.99 plus parts & tax.

part was replaced,and I still have the same problem

Watched the vidio. Removed back, swap out part shown and replaced. 10 minutes.......Ran test load, and then with wet clothes.......Worked like it should and a $20 part was way better than replacing a dryer..........

replaced Part.

Just followed the steps on the video available on the site.Very easy. Removed the top cover. Removed the front cover. Released the belt from the motor. Pull the drum out. Installed the new seal. While waiting for the glue to dry, I cleaned all the interior of the dryer with a vacuum cleaner. Even got some extra screws that were probably removed in previous maintenance jobs. Once the glue was dry, I assembled the dryer in the reverse order, always following the steps from the video: Installed the drum back to its place, reconnected the belt to the motor, made sure the seal was in the correct place/alignment with the back wall, replaced the front panel, replaced the top panel, plugged back to the wall, turned the gas valve on, turned the dryer on, and it worked!!! Follow the instructions on the video.

I highly recommend using a multi-meter to test for continuity on the thermistors and the heating element. It will likely save you a lot of time and you can replace the correct part the first time. I found the high limit thermostat to be open. Also note that if you find the same part open, it is most always caused by another part failure or the dryer vent to be clogged up with lint. I also cleaned out the lint chamber which was in pretty bad shape and likely caused my failure. But, the parts were not expensive and were replaced while I was doing the trouble shooting. The video is excellent and if followed all will turn out ok. This is my third different appliance repair, and the parts are always in stock, the standard shipping was 7 days, and everything you need is provided.

purchased the thermal cut off kit. Installed it. Dryer still didn't work. The part was non-returnable since we installed it. Then purchased the heating element. Installed it and the dryer worked fine. Delivery time for the parts was superb !

I replaced the cycling thermostat but this did not remedy the problem and after further evaluation I determined that the secondary solenoid coil (hold/assist)had an open coil wire on the gas valve. This is best purchased as a set, primary coil and secondary coil, as it is less expensive this way.

took off back. unhooked 2 wires and a screw. replaced and done . put on back.

Unplugged dryer power cord and removed old thermal cut off kit,....installed new kit and reconnected wiring and plugged unit back up,...ready to go.

Checked continuity of element checked good so started checking continuity of other parts on back in line with elements. Found thermal cutoff did not have continuity although I didnt know it was called thermal cutoff. I entered part number from piece that didnt have continuity and parts select told me what it was so I ordered replacement and installed no problem.

I first repaired the most likely suspects. The heating element and fuse. That did not do the trick. So then I replaced everything else that could effect the heat, that was over 1% of the likely problem. Wala...fixed. Directions were easy, work was easy and the result was a working dryer, good as new. I probably replaced a few items that were not bad but the entire cost was just over $100. A far cry from replacing the dryer at $599
